Okay so, changed my icon. Just a heads up. I always feel obligated to use an exceedingly silly one if at all possible.
Really going to bed now.
yes, this is indeed a blog
Hi, I'm draconicAlgorithm. I'm a 20-year-old biology major. I reblog mostly homestuck, transformers prime, portal, earthbound/mother 3, pokemon, books, anime, cats, and dragons.

Karkat would be the worst teacher.
And by worst I mean the best.
He’d screech and screech and screech like a fucking maniac in all his lessons
Anyone who miraculously managed to fall asleep in his class would have their desk tipped over and a faceful of screaming Professor Vantas
And then he’d accidentally make someone cry one day and suddenly he’s this sweet guy all full of apologies
“CG: FUCK I DIDN’T THINK YOU’D TAKE ME SO SERIOUSLY
CG: HEY, STOP
CG: HEY, DON’T…
CG: STOP CRYING, I DIDN’T MEAN IT WHEN I SAID YOU’RE WORTHLESS HUMAN SCUM
CG: LOOK, I’M SORRY
CG: I’LL GET YOU ICE CREAM IF YOU STOP
CG: C’MON, YOU’RE OKAY
CG: HUGS, C’MON
CG: LET’S GO, WE HAVE TO HUG THIS OUT
CG: GO HOME, I’LL JUST PASS YOU FOR THE DAY, I GUESS
CG: COME IN TOMORROW BEFORE SCHOOL AND I’LL HELP YOU WITH TODAY’S LESSON
CG: OKAY BYE HAVE A GOOD DAY
CG:… THE FUCK ARE YOU ALL STARING AT
CG: GET THE FUCK BACK TO WORK BEFORE I TEAR OUT YOUR OCULAR JELLIES AND STUFF THEM SO FAR DOWN YOUR PROTEIN CHUTES YOU’LL BE SHITTING OCULAR FLUID FOR A WEEK”
and everyone would be so terrified of him that no one dared NOT learn their shit
no one fails Professor Vantas’s tests
NO ONE
LOL OMG THIS ^
Only there’d be that one kid that would smart-ass him and result in yelling shouts and detention. omfg detentions with Mr. Vantas. omfg.
perfect
that smart-ass kid would be Dave
Rebloging mostly for that whole flawless conversation.
Also, Professor Vantas.

On Shipping and Fanboys
This is my letter to angry fanboys.
First, let it be known that I love most fanboys. When I go to a con, most of the guys there are respectful. They share a passion with me, and that’s awesome. We’re all on a rock floating through space with little connection to most of the people who surround us, so anything that allows us to bond is fantastic.
What I don’t love are angry fanboys (I wish there were a different word for them). I don’t love being scoffed at when I jump excitedly at finding a comic. I don’t love being told that, if I didn’t like something, it’s because it wasn’t “meant for chicks.” I don’t love the notion that I’m not a real fan because I have two X chromosomes and like to look at the Avengers cast. And I sure as hell don’t love my online interests (particularly shipping) being looked down on by the people who do this:
(Comment on a negative Rotten Tomatoes review of The Avengers.)
(Message in my inbox. Way to be an anonymous coward.)
(Comment on the the SHH boards.)
That last one’s fairly tame. It followed a (now deleted) comment that went something to the effect of this: “Tumblr is sick. I can’t even browse the Avengers tag because of all the fangirls posting porn.”
Well, you know what? I’m not sorry.
I’m not sorry my enjoyment of fandom is different from yours.
Maybe my time would be better spent bitching at reviewers and complaining that Black Widow made it to film before Ant-Man. But that’s not what I choose to do. I choose to draw. I choose to write fanfic. I choose to share podcasts and make comic book recommendations. I choose to be positive (when I’m not pissed of at people like you anyway).
I’m not sorry you sometimes stumble upon sexualized male characters.
You know why? Because of this:
(Zatanna’s new “costume”)
And this:
(Starfire)
And this:
(Heroes for Hire #13)
And, finally, this:
(Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, Hawkeye, and TITS AND ASS!)
You get to ogle comic book characters constantly. You get to ogle movie characters constantly. And you know what? While I have a problem with the double standard in comics, that is your right. Women are sexy.
But if I want to put Iron Man and Captain America on the cover of The Notebook or pose them like Cyclops and Jean Grey, I’m going to do it. And I think I have the right to without being thought of as some sort of freak.
(Shameless self-promotion.)
How is the way I enjoy my hobby less healthy than the way you enjoy yours? How am I the one who’s inappropriate? I think it’s because I sexualize male characters instead of female ones.
I’m not sorry that makes you uncomfortable.
(“Leave the Avengers aloooonnneeeee!”)
(Wasp would never say this.)
I’m not sorry you’re a homophobe.
Actually, I kind of am. Exploring alternate sexual orientations isn’t “defamation of character.” It’s 2012, for crying out loud. I’m not a lesbian (or curious for that matter) but I can appreciate the Spider-Woman/Ms.Marvel pairing and the occasional Pepper/Natasha fic. The world of internet fandom has a lot to offer you if you let it.
I’m not sorry for shipping.
Shipping is glorious. I ship because it’s nice to think that these epic heroes have equally epic romances. Some of the fanfic out there is better written than a lot of comic books. Some of the fanart is better than real comic book art (looking at you, Rob Liefeld). Some of the things I ship are canon (Spider-Man/MJ). Others aren’t.
(Not canon.)
There’s a misconception that fangirls are only interested in male/male pairings. Some of them are, and who cares? That’s their right. But the assumption just isn’t true. There’s a reason Natasha/Clint is popular among movie fans. There’s a reason Tony/Pepper is popular. Those characters have boatloads of chemistry.
Then again, so do Loki/Thor, Tony/Bruce, and Tony/Steve. Don’t want ladies to overwhelmingly ship male characters together? Make a movie with more than one female lead. We can’t help it that The Avengers is a sausage party.
We are going to ship. We are going to ship loudly and proudly and there’s nothing you can do about it. I suggest you stop complaining and jump on the bandwagon. You might be surprised at how much you enjoy fangirls when you get to know us. We have a sense of humor. We have a sense of fun. We just happen to also have a strong sense of romance and a thing for attractive men.
So sue us.

Ah, new chapters of Herding Cats and As It Should Be. One of the few good things about not having internet for a while: fics sometimes update while I’m gone.
In any case, I need to head to bed. I start working at my new job tomorrow. At 8 AM, apparently, since no one ever told me when to be there.

ok so today at fanime
like right outside of the convention these mega christians came and started protesting against gays and how they’re trying to be something they’re not and how we’re all sinning because we’re all dressing up as things we’re not and whatever
and then gamzee got on this tiny truck and slowly rode in front of the protesters and it was glorious and was probably the best thing that happened all day
bless this fandom
